Hi BHPians,

I am planning to buy an Astor CVT soon and looking at two options which are very similar in price:

1. Option 1: 2024 Sharp CVT which has Ventilated Seats, Wireless Apple Carplay and Android Auto, Wireless Charger, Auto IRVM
2. Option 2: Nov 2023 Savvy CVT with Red Interiors and ADAS L2 minus above 4 features.

Ventilated Seats and Auto IRVM is what is pulling me towards MY24 but Red Interiors + ADAS L2 makes sense from Safety perspective. I live in NCR.
Any suggestions?

What are the discounts being offered on both the models?

Oy Corporate discount on MY24 @15K approx. On MY23, Savvy - 90k+15k. Difference between both is around 20k after this.

I'm also looking for Astor MY 24 but with 1.3 Turbo engine. I would suggest press hard for MY23 model (how old is this?) if you want to save money. If not, MY24 is a no brainer. I believe there is a hike on the way.

I had gone for a TD in Jan'24, at the MG showroom at sector 1 Noida.
For MY2023 cars, discount of Rs. 1.25L was offered to me - before negotiations. I negotiated till Rs. 1.75L discount, before I dropped the plan for an Astor.

Heard from colleagues about discount being close to Rs. ~2L for MY2023 cars (model to model MG has cut prices by 1.25L {and changed the name of the variant} and dealers offering a discount of Rs 75K over that).

The availability of MY2023 stock would be sparse though.

From the dealer end, this was the number from which I was contacted on, after I expressed interest online.
+917017301661 : Sagar Dhyaki - Affable & helpful chap.

My understanding is that, this is the dealership number. Hence not masking the personal info.

After a lot of deliberations, picked up 1.3 Turbo and quite impressed with the overall package.

Noticing a faint rattle at idle, like something is loose.
Checked the engine bay and underbody, couldn't find anything.

Noise appears to come from the gearbox/centre dashboard.

Any leads?

Check the Astor bot, it the most probable culprit. Try keeping a finger on it when you hear the rattling noise to see if it reduces to check.
